I am saddened at the deterioration of class and decorum at the MUD. The total lack of regard for common decency and human feelings is just astounding.
I've been on the game for quite a number of years and I have never seen the amount of hate language and random abuses that I have seen as of the last maybe 6 months on WD.
I have noticed that this sort of activity occurs the most when there are no active (or visible) immortals are on to stop it. (late evenings and early mornings.)
I personally will no longer sit by and allow this to continue. I don't have a problem with people cursing and things like that, but the hate speech and disgusting personal jabs just really need to stop. I say that the only way to do is it twofold.
Here are the steps:
1. Document
2. Report
I think if we as a collective take the time to document the behavior and then report it to the appropriate parties, we can do something big. I am one lone voice in the grand scheme of things, but I know that if others step up and let these people know that their behavior and words WILL NOT be tolerated, I think we can see some change. This is our game and we should be able to log on and feel comfortable. If you're with me on this, please begin to document and report to these incidents to the immortals.
Thank you.
